This goes beyond the lying we've grown accustomed to. He seems to genuinely believe these blatantly false narratives, and makes policy based on them. And no one around him has the will to say, "That's just not so."

His repeated assertions that tariffs are bringing in "trillion," when they have brought in about one-quarter trillion, raise new questions about his mental fitness to govern.

This is not accurate. Nobody but the officer impeached and convicted is removed. If Trump were impeached and removed by the Senate, Vance would succeed to the presidency. Same with the 25th Amendment.

The process of stigmatized dissent as terror is well underway.

I hope they tear the damn thing down the moment he's gone.

Trump to threaten new tariffs, as he did to Brazil, in 3, 2, 1 ...

This is America's Reichstag Fire moment.

I do have to point out that as recently as 2016 four of the five elected statewide offices were held by Democrats, although the legislature was heavily gerrymandered for Republicans. Missouri's precipitous rightward plunge began then.

Oh, now they think courts have jurisdiction in immigration matters?

That is not what it says at all. It lists those officers as ones who are subject to removal for conviction of that individual. It literally does not say they are all removed upon impeachment and conviction of the president. It would be a catastrophe if "all civil officers" were removed at once.

After you had, what, a hundred FBI agents working around the clock to flag all references to a certain individual? Thanks a whole big bunch.

The "crime emergency" consists of one DOGE guy getting carjacked.

They voted for this.

I'm horrified that his approval ratings are still hovering around 50%.

The dignity of the office of President of the United States may never recover from this man.

That's what Republicans do every single time, so who's surprised?
